"Why Did You Call the Police? They Don't Help You."

by William Norman GriggIn May of last year, Los Angeles resident Veronica Cornejo called 911 to report that her mentally disturbed brother was agitated and could be dangerous to himself and others. Three Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched and, as is always the case when police intervene, things became immediately and immeasurably worse. The invaders barged into the home without invitation, dragged all five family members from the house, and threw them to the ground.

As she was being abused, Veronica — who suffers from a heart condition — tried to explain that she was the one who had called for help. Her father, Jorge, was justifiably infuriated by the treatment his daughter received and told the deputies that they should expect a lawsuit. that prompted one of them to punch the 53-year-old man repeatedly.

Since Jorge suffers from diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, this unprovoked attack could have been lethal (although the coroner would have immediately ruled that it was the result of “natural causes” unrelated to the criminal assault by a costumed goon). Veronica pleaded with the deputy to stop hitting her father. By way of reply the assailant threw Jorge on top of his daughter, and all three of the deputies began to beat both of them. Jorge, his wife, and his daughter were kidnapped at gunpoint and charged with the no-crime of resisting arrest. It took the family seven months of expensive and frustrating legal hassles to get that spurious charge dismissed.

During the assault on his family, Jorge asked his daughter: “Why did you call the police? They don’t help you.” Indeed, every human problem can be transformed into a tragedy one the state’s armed enforcers intervene. Police and rapists — those groups overlap, of course — are the only aggressors whose victims are counseled to put up no resistance. The only substantive difference is that police have the supposed authority to prosecute victims who are regarded as insufficiently docile.

Statutes that punish people for exercising their innate and long-recognized right to resist police violence should be abolished immediately, of course, but this would only be a down-payment toward the eventual and badly needed abolition of government police agencies altogether.

If people in the US had an absolute unquestioned right to self-defense, they would begin questioning the need for police and come to the conclusion that maybe we don't need the police after all. So the government passes laws that restrict self-defense in order to justify the existence of the police and create dependence upon them.

173242, people in the US, in fact in every small village of i, have an unquestionable right and practical means to elect the government that would do that, and that would hold the police accountable. But instead they elect those who promise even more tough on crime attitude and more war on drugs, That evil government that passes those evil laws, is doing it with full approval of the electorate. They made their safety the #1 priority, to the degree where they already stopped wishing each other "happy new year" and changed it to "safe new year", and naturally, the police is seen as the #1 enabler of that wish.

Ironically, I recall that several days ago this same website published a story about the cop who had been fired for stating to some family that "I can only beat people and lock them up in jail, so if you interject me in your relationship, there will be nothing good for either of us all." - which was deemed oh so inappropriate, and resulted in the storm of angry comments on all forums. This case is perfect illustration of that cop being absolutely correct and honest.

There's also another thing... I can't help but notice that all participants of this story, from the both sides, are apparently Mexican immigrants. So I wonder, to what degree this case even represents anything in the United States. One group of the people of foreign culture has beaten another group of people of the same foreign culture. Excuse me for being cynical, but should we even care?

@nonymous 173242 "If people in the US had an absolute unquestioned right to self-defense,..."

Erm... I believe we ALL have "FREE-WILL," do we not?

Are you born into a system of statutory law? or, are you programmed to believe that you are subject to a system of statutory law?

Statutory law = "idea law." Those "ideals" belong to (less-than) men, who couldn't measure-up in the REAL world, hence: "Progre(SS) Parasites." They have to brainwash real men to do their bidding ie. "cops."
You should be nice to the cops, their programming is not infallible, in other words: "it CAN be undone."

Q: How can you be subject to, and, bound by, a system you never signed for?

I've not had a single instance in my whole life where i needed a police officer or asked one for anything. I've probably had 40 or so instances of negative interactions i never should have experienced. i didn't sign anything saying i support this system, i'll never count on it or ask for any help in any form. these are guys like the rest of us, but wearing costumes that "means" they "are the law." the fact that police are for profit in my mind nullifies any rights they have, and that they are sworn to protect the constitution but will lie to you about your rights is treason. i support natural law only, the rest is all bs. this government makes us pay taxes to pay for surveillance, red light cameras, new cars etc, shit we don't want them to have. the police station in my
neighborhood has 4 chargers, a Durango, and 2 challengers, one undercover. they're the nicest cars in the whole town, nobody else can afford even close. how is this for fucked?
